No doubt, if the goal was to be some rich, worthless scumfuck I'd be doing different things. I'd probably have to spend my days trying to suck Trump Coins out of some grifter's dick. Or maybe I'd build a time machine to go back and make sure I popped out of a lady with a connection to an emerald mine. But... we all have our paths to walk. Mine is to toil endlessly in pursuit of purpose...
This conversation is actually a great example of complexity not mattering. You're on an Australian server, I'm on a Canadian server. We're replying to a post from a user on a third server to a community on a fourth server that people mistakenly think is American but is actually hosted in Germany. None of that matters because it just works. It's indistinguishable from posts and comments -- including you trying blame the whole thing on me -- at the same place. You can make it seem very complicated but all anyone has to do is type words in the little box and press the button to post it.
The way too many people think about the Fediverse right now is like thinking that you need to know every minor detail about how a call could make it from a cell phone in Australia to a cell phone in Canada. You don't need to know that to make a call. You don't need to know all the minutia about ActivityPub or federation to use the fediverse.
